There's few small flaws in your theory, Matt. 1. Dr. Wily is hardly an idiot when it comes to robotics. You make it sound like all he can do is sit back and beg robots to pretty please join him. If that were the case the stages and his fortresses would be empty, and he'd come at you on a bicycle. 2. You made it sound like Dr. Light made all the robot Masters. He only made the first and ninth Batch of Robot Masters himself. Has I recall, the second, fifth and Seventh batches were all made from the ground up by Wily. The third was made by Light and Wily together. The fourth batch was made by Dr. Cossack. The sixth were made by robotic engineers from all over the world and entered in a global competition. The eighth also came from all sorts of different places, such as Clown Man's being an old amusement park attraction, though I don't believe their creators are ever credited none of them were Thomas Light, I'm pretty such. 3. LIGHT'S ROBOT'S CAN'T KILL PEOPLE. Dr. Wily reprograms them and erases the program that prevents them from doing so. Yes this includes Mega Man. That's probably why he's talking so slow he's, trying to go against his programing, and probably wouldn't have been able to. Remember that scene in Robocop, when he tries to kill Dick Jones? Yeah he was a real prick too. But Robocop could not break his programing, and that dude had a Human Brain! It was like that. Mega can point the Buster and threaten. But that's about it. As advance as Mega Man's A.I. was, able to make some choices for himself he was still a slave to his programing. That's what makes X so special. Dr. Light wanted him to be a real person, he wanted a son. So he made something more than a robot, something with complete free will, capable of random thoughts and actions, true autonomy. An absolute variable, hence the name "X". And though he did it begrudgingly, that included the ability to kill people. He knew he had to have that choice for his actions and decisions to have any meaning. If what you're saying is true, then X's existence is pointless because Dr. Light's been pumping these out since day one.

This part of megaman saying he is more then a robot is changed on the original he stops once willy mentions the laws of robotics

The Japanese version of Mega Man 7 has Mega Man stop charging his buster after Wily reminds him that he cannot harm humans; which effects this theory significantly, as it suggests Mega Man's immunity to the three laws of Robotics was added in the English version. The stuff with the Mega Man 9 robots still applies, however, but keep in mind that Dr. Wily also modifies them to better suit his needs. The Mega Man X series establishes that the first completely autonomous robot was Mega Man X, establishing that all previous robots at least had some limitation on their autonomy, like the Three Laws (this is why Proto Man is not considered a Reploid like the robots in Mega Man X are).

@FoxTenson

I think the more free will developing for mega man holds up even with that. He's shown gradual changes unlike other robots towards free will, if he had to stick to the three rules he would have never threatened in the first place. Being reminded stopping him still shows some sort of conscience and conflict. It really fits with his gradual growing "soul" and possible origin of X in him. X has been conflicted many times with his will, but thats something else. 8 also pokes at it during the ending, as things couldn't affect him if he lacked some sort of free will. Personally I think his true free will came about after 8. Dr light had many chances to use data from Duo, not to mention Duo's power used on megaman. 8 also kinda shows the possible origin of the zero virus but the games never go into TOO much story detail, so its mostly a theory. A GAME THEORY OH NO!

One huge flaw: Light never ignored the law. The only reason Protoman can think for himself is due to an error in his system (same reason he ran away too.) Megaman 1's robot masters were built to obay humans and were made as utility robots and had their weapons (And likely robot ethics) modified by Dr. Wily for evil, they originally did nothing dangerous at all.

aaaa why'd you have to bring that up

The scene where Megaman decides to kill Wily actually is covered under Asimov's laws, because there's an unwritten "zeroth" law, which supersedes all the others. "A robot may not harm HUMANITY, or through inaction allow HUMANITY to come to harm." If by killing one man a robot saves many lives, then the robot is not just ALLOWED to do so, it MUST do so. This is a dilemma Asimov himself addressed. So, it's actually possible that Megaman was following the laws of robotics. By killing Wily Megaman could save countless lives, so under the zeroth law he actually is required to kill the man. He's just following his programming.

@boinamedrex_69

@owenshreiner6574

Yup everything checks out.

If I remembered correctly, the robots were not created with weapons. They had tools, but are later modified by Wily and turned into weapon grade arsenals. Almost all of the robots were industrial robots, except for Rock, Roll, and Zero. The fact that Wily mentioned that robots cannot harm humans, it means Light must have already had safety protocols similar to Asimov's laws in those other robots, except for Megaman who were meant to be as human as possible. Megaman's statement is actually an assertion of his ability to be able to judge what is right and wrong. Meaning he is not a slave to humanity, but as equals. BTW Asimov's laws are not air tight because a robot cannot judge what is considered harm or injury without very specific parameter. In fact the first law is the problem, because while it prevents a robot rebellion, it will make the robot non-functional quite often, which will be explained below. Okay, let's say I am in a mall with a gun pointed at my head by a lunatic who is about to shoot me. The first law dictates that the robots in the vicinity must help me, but the first law also stated that harming the guy holding a gun to my head is not allowed. Now a normal person with freewill will assess the situation and make a decision. Which decision or whether it is a good decision or not, it doesn't really matter. What matters is that a person with freewill can look at the other decision and say "screw it". However, a robot cannot do such things because it has no freewill due to Asimov's law. Lastly, the example about the autonomous turret. Is that suppose to be horrifying because the turret has freewill, or is it horrifying that it has the ability to kill without human pulling the trigger? Yet, the turret have no freewill and is following programming set by humans, essentially an obedient slave. Freewill is not the issue with that turret, it is how horrifying human beings can be when we act in fear that is the problem. The turret is only doing what we told it to do, and we did not give it freewill to question the orders. Freewill can be good or bad, and if we deem robots as loyal servants, then we first must question ourselves because we are the ones with the freewill to do so, not the robots.

Fun video, and an interesting little hypothesis. However, there are some problems with it: 1: Dr Light did NOT create all the Robot Masters in each game. Dr Wily created the ones in Mega Man 2, 5, 7, and 8, Dr Cossack created the ones in 4, and several scientists were the creators of the robots in Mega Man 6. Since so many of these robots were made by other people, you can't say that it was all Dr Light's fault that they went on a rampage. And keep in mind, Wily created many of these himself, making him share even more of the responsibility. 2: It is heavily suggested by the overall plot that the type of autonomy Mega Man possesses is unique to him. Notice in the very scene that you use to prove your argument, Wily is shocked that Mega Man is able to decide for himself to blast him.. and this is in Mega Man 7, meaning that a whole lot of time has passed with Wily and Light messing around with robotics. If autonomy was something that all these robots had, why then is Wily surprised that Mega Man was able to make the decision he made? Even more, consider also that the ones in Mega Man 9 were going to accept their fates, and only went with Wily because he promised to fix them so they could keep on doing their intended purposes (by the way, note that many of these Masters are actually re-purposed utility/worker robots, only sticking with the jobs assigned and programed to them. What's more, the decision making abilities they have were specific to their job set and for commanding other less advanced robots for the projects they were made for - Guts Man, a construction robot, commanding a bunch of less advanced construction bots such as the mets - ; that's why they are called Robot Masters, actually. If they had the full autonomy Mega Man has, couldn't they have decided to do some other work, or be able to go against their programing?). They did NOT chose to go on a rampage, that only happened after he reprogrammed them. So if the autonomy that Mega Man possesses is unique to him, or at the very least is something that only a few of the robots have (such as Proto Man, Roll, and Bass), then that pretty much deflates the argument that all these rampages are Dr Light's fault because of all these robots having autonomy. Another point, though it's not really theory busting: Dr Light didn't actually just let Proto Man run off and not care about pursuing him. When Proto Man escaped, he was considered destroyed, thus there was no attempt to get him back. Dr wily later found and repaired him; that's how he was able to figure out how to reprogram the robots Dr Light made. So yeah, nice hypothesis, but it doesn't really hold up when one recalls the overall plot of the games. Still was a fun video though, and I like the other Game Theorists videos, so no biggie. :p

***** Actually, to be fair, a theory is actually a fact, or as close to a fact as we can get, at least if we are talking about the strict definition of the word. This is why I called what he suggested a hypothesis. A hypothesis is something like an educated guess with some support for it (very simplistic definition, I know). A theory is a hypothesis that's been tested over and over to see if it holds up to scrutiny. Most people use the word theory, but actually mean hypothesis, or even just a guess. Anyway, just wanted to clear that up, though I do have to state again that I actually like these videos, even if they aren't always correct. They're interesting, and they're fun to watch. Plus, it's just fun to speculate about all these stories and background stuff in video games. We don't always have to be right when it comes to fun speculation, it just has to make some sort of sense.

Also, keep in mind that (as you yourself just pointed out) Wily also helped make the Robot Master's in 3, so again, you can't really say it's all Light's fault. Even if we were to decide that somehow, because Light had a hand in creating those robots, it is his fault, that's just one game, not the whole run of the series. So the hypothesis here still doesn't hold up.

OBJECTION! Game Theory, I realize this is merely an entertaining video, but your basis of information is the anomaly that is the English ending of Megaman 7 that most fans don't consider canon because Megaman acts out of character, and it also is different from the original Japanese ending. Before 7's ending and after it, it's repeatedly stated that Megaman is a pacifist FORCED to fight, and yes, clearly bound by the rules of robotics if you look at all the actions he did in every other Megaman classic title. Megaman only wanted to kill Wily in the English version of the game - something added by Capcom USA, not the original creators. In the original Japanese version, he merely threatens Wily, and then when Dr. Wily reminds him that robots cannot harm humans, he lowers his buster and stands down, rather than saying that he's "more than a robot", like in the English version. It's sort of ridiculous to count edits made by a localization team as canon, especially when the original creators never agreed to the changes. Keiji Inafune has stated he was personally displeased with the ending of 7, and even the original threat against Wily was not his doing.

And who says the Japanese way is the right way, anyhow? All of the Mega Man games and cartoons he referenced in the video were American/English adaptations. Maybe he wasn't talking about the Japanese Mega Man. Maybe Rockman and Mega Man are two wholly different ideas because of this. Woah. I was about to divide by zero there. Sorry.

According to the wiki, the Japanese ending did make mention of the rules of robotics, so we've at least established their existence. So that's that. Also, (although not as clear-cut as the 7 English ending) Protoman broke rule 3 by escaping, as he disregarded his creator's will to repair him in order to "survive" (as he believed). And at the same time, Megaman volunteers to a course of action that would weaponize him, which to me seems like a breach of rule 1. What I'm getting at is this: Although the (non-cannon) ending of 7 made a very clear case of the rules being established and disregarded, there's arguably proof in the cannon that the rules exist, and at least Proto and Mega can bend them. Besides, the company's objection was how lousily the character was represented, no breach of cannon ;)

Law serves to protect society, and it's members, and the results of social interaction are highly variable.

That’s not edgy

From what I understand of the lore of the Megaman games, Dr. Light did build the original collection of Robot Masters (Iceman, Fireman, Elecman, Gutsman, Bombman, Cutman, and possibly Oilman and Timeman) but he build them not to be weapons but to be tools to help humanity (Gutsman was supposed to help in Construction, Iceman was to help fight fires, Bombman was to help in demolition, Cutman to help in deforestation, etc, etc.) But Wily corrupted their programming, he didn't give the Robot Masters a choice. In fact, in Megaman Powered Up, you can rescue the Robot Masters and after beating them with your Mega Buster, it becomes clear that all the Robot Masters had been tampered with (prime example would be Iceman's split soldier personality). Also, while Light made the first collection of Robot Masters, for all the other Megaman games, they were created by Dr. Wily (that's why we got more weapon-oriented Robot Masters like Crashman and Napalmman). Also, regarding Protoman, obviously they were supposed to replace Dr. Light's children, so if Protoman wanted to have nothing to do with him and left, that was his choice, so in his suffering he made two more children to bring joy to his life. And finally, let's get to Megaman 7, this is all guesswork but if Megman registered Wily as to much of a threat, he could have calculated that he must be terminated (though why it took 7 games to figure that out? Who knows) but isn't it possible, that after absorbing so many corrupt Robot Masters that it started to affect Megaman's mind? Seriously, how could you absorb the essence of 54+ Robot Masters (up to the point) and not be affected? So it's possible that the Robot Masters' programming by Dr. Wily, negatively affect Megaman after absorbing their powers?

@genisay

There have also been past instances of Wily attempting to, and some times succeeding in reprogramming Mega Man. I think if it is possible his programming eventually ruled Wily as being a threat that, no matter how much time give, would not undo his ways (and he'd be right, considering Zero's creation), that because Dr. Light built Rock's program with so much compassion, he would have to know, with out a doubt, that nothing was ever going to change, despite Wily's pleas. He gave him a chance, and gave him a chance, because it was something his personality and robot identity said he did not want to do.

So to put this down simply in terms of 7's ending, it technically isn't cannon.

This is a really good point! While Megaman's "Weapon Absorb System" is known to download each robot master's powers, who knows what else could be downloaded from each master? Megaman was also created in a time before Virtualization (as we know today) was an actual thing, so all that data is going to interface outside of any weapons sandbox that would of been created these days. Another great point as well with letting Protoman go! To try and rope the prodigal son back would only be a "master commanding their robot" in that exact term. Letting Protoman be free allows for him to learn as a human (or android in this case) as to what it means to have to think for one's self. Like any human (and as what's portrayed in one of the comic strips that zoomed on by) we're capable of greatness and of evil at the same time. Compare that to the auto-turret on wheels scenario. Unless that turret has a *spark* of thought to put itself in harm to save another's life, it's nothing more than just a circuit on wheels with one programmed mission. Protoman (and Megaman and Roll) needs to learn that acts of valor was what makes them more than just robots in the end.

Right. And one thing /any/ of the series always declared was that Dr. Light /loved/ his creations, and though of them as /more/ then just mere machines to do our bidding. It was the whole reason he did research into autonomous robots, and applied it to a few of his own. But while he longed for the day when robots would be more like people, he also knew there were many hurdles to overcome, and many of which were morals, ethics and current views and fears, so he only applied the auto program to a tiny number of his creations, where were not originally supposed to have been combat robots. Turning Rock /into/ a combat robot was his way of fessing up to the fact that it was /his/ creations causing the messes, and that he had made mistakes in his judgement of his old friend, Wily. He was asked to help, but in the end, it was ultimately his own decision to convert Rock so that something could be done. But even with Rock having the auto program, he had done his best to teach Rock the difference between right and wrong, and what it meant to hurt others, and be hurt. In that respect, he could have only done as well as any parent who believed in trying to do the right thing could have done with their children.

Here's the thing though: a majority of the games, Wily does do his own programming/reprogramming/robo-building. MM1, he reprograms 6 utility robots Dr. Light created into weapons. MM2 he built the robots himself. MM3 reprograms both the 8 Robot Masters and Gamma. MM4 kidnaps another scientist's daughter and forces him to create 8 more robots. MM5 he created 4 Dark Man robots. MM6 Wily reprograms the 8 finalists of a tournament held for fighting robots from other nations. They were not of Light's creations and were used for actual fighting, though they may have been based of Light's designs. MM7 He not only built 8 new robots to bust him out of jail, knowing he was going to be imprisoned at some point, he also built Bass and Treble, two robots CLEARLY on par in independence with Protoman and Megaman. MM8 He uses the Dark Energy to power his own 8 robot masters MM9 Wily builds 8 robot masters to battle the "evil" Dr. Light's robots MM10 Roboenza? Seriously Dr. Wily? Also, blaming Light as being evil for programming robots with free will, then seeing those robots re-programmed/side with Wily, would be the same as calling Einstein evil for having thought up the equivalence of matter and energy, and then others using that to create the atomic bomb.

i think he was just saying that Dr. Light is 'responsible' for what happened. not evil.

bad example. if you wanted to stick with nukes you could compare it to nuklear power plants without safty featchers (i guess) cause even if he did it with the best in mind he created robots with the capabilety and will to kill without ANY safty option (like a dead man switsh or emergency comands etc) and let them out into the world so is he evil? no. is he to blame for what happens? partly. is wily the bad one defenetly.^^

The example may be bad, but my point was Wily was NOT an unskilled scientist. He was on par with Light in robotics research and development EXCEPT for creating robots with free will. He could have just as easily built regular fighting robots without the three laws in place or reprogram Dr. Light's robots, thus removing the laws. At some point, he had found out how to program free will though. Which explains Bass.

I love this video I hope you make more mage man videos

In Megaman 2, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8, wily built the robot masters himself. Also the doc robots in mm 3

The Game Theorist is the best channel on KZread. Gosh, I love it so much.

There is a really good video about Megaman released from Capcom called the Day of Sigma which shows the implementation and development of Megaman. Yeah Protoman just escaping was pretty damn funny. Ehh F@#$ it, I'll jusst build more LOL.

Good video and I'm inclined to agree with some of your points. That said its a huge leap to go from "Dr. Light is irresponsible" to "Dr. Wily is innocent".

He actually got a lot of incorrect, US version is a mistranslation and completely different from the original telling of the Mega Man 7 story in Japan. Which quite literally invalidates the rest of his points

Megaman X3 is the best megaman game ever

Normally, I'm inclined to think at length on these topics, especially since such a good case is put forth. However, I can't agree at all on this theory. What's being argued here is purely semantics. Dr. Light created a series of androids with autonomy, but NOT, as was stated, without ethical programming. Rock and Blues were experimental exceptions to this as Light wanted to see how a robot without a specific purpose would adapt to human life. Blues chose to "escape" and find his own path whereas Rock acted more like a child would and chose to see Light as a father and act that way. Both, though, exhibited strong ethical tendencies (Blues, though rebellious, usually did the right thing even so far as to end up being a major ally to Megaman in his fight against Wily). The incident at the end of MM7 was the case of Megaman finally being pushed too far and acting like an angry teenager. In summary, Light built some robots who's "purpose" was to be human. Now, had you said that Light was responsible for the Reploid uprisings in the X series, then I would be more inclined to believe it. Dr. Light did build X with the full intention of him being absolutely free willed. Dr.Cain, having found X some years later in stasis then used X as a template to create the Reploids and, ultimately, Sigma. And we all know what happened with Sigma there. Though, it could be argued that Wily was just as much at fault when he created Zero as a means to infect all other robots with a virus that caused a sort of induced robot madness and eventually infecting Sigma as well. But, really, this is all just like blaming the person who invented the spear for every war ever fought and the deaths that have occurred because of it.

I didn't like how he grabbed the entirely free will of Proto Man and Mega Man then applied that to every other Robot Master out there, implying they all have the ability to kill humans which none of them ever even considered. Also the fact that Mega Man and Proto Man both had human-like ethics, pretty much means Dr. Light created...basically humans. Sure they're stronger than a normal human, but put some body armor on a guy and give him a gun and you essentially have Mega Man. So really, if because of what happened in MM7 makes Dr. Light a bad person for creating something with the potential to kill human beings, then does that mean this video is implying all parents, mothers and fathers, are bad people for also creating something with the potential to kill human beings?

What about the Zeroth Law? (paraphrasing) "A robot may not harm a human, unless doing so would be for the greater good of humanity as a whole." Arguably, killing Wily probably would've been the quicker short-term solution for protecting humanity (especially since we all know how hard it is to get politicians to change any laws). No more Wily = No more Robot Masters terrorizing humans = No more Wily-related problems (and with the added benefit of no Maverick Virus, no Zero Nightmare, and no Model W)
